ridgegear-tool-lanyard.com The Range Selector Eliminates the danger of dropping tools and keeps them close at hand. Tool Lanyard is a new range of height safety products from RidgeGear specifically designed to eradicate injuries from falling tools, a significant cause of fatalities in the workplace. Made in the EU at our factory in Leek, England, our Tool Lanyard range is manufactured to the same high standards as our renowned harnesses and lanyards, so you can be sure of the quality from start to finish. TOOL LANYARDS Our lanyards come in three different ranges so whatever your requirement, we have a lanyard to suit your needs. COLOUR CODED LABELS Easy capacity identification. Standard High quality flat webbing for basic tool restraint. Please be aware this is only a guide, you should always weigh your own tools before deciding which Tool Lanyard to use. Check individual Tool Lanyard information for actual capacity. Elastic Webbing with added elastication for ease of movement and convenience and basic energy absorbing properties. CONNECTION LOOP Shock Absorbers Made from either advanced Kinetic webbing or incorporating a neat shock pack, these lanyards are the pinnacle of tool safety. In the event of dropping a heavy tool, they significantly minimise the risk of the user being pulled off a ladder or platform by drastically reducing the peak loads. For karabiner connection to harness. For simple, direct connection of tools. Our lanyards have a range of tethering options that can be easily choked around tools with a captive handle or waisted tools. CONNECTORS In addition to tethers, we have a range of unique connectors designed to make it easy to attach almost any of your existing tools.

UP TO UP TO Standard Range Sales Hotline: 01538 392616 Our Standard lanyards are designed to be our entry level product that does the job perfectly. RTLS 1 TOOL LANYARD WITH CHOKE LOOP MAX. CAPACITY 3kg They are all made from our high quality 20mm flat webbing which is specially treated to be water repellent and resistant to oil and grease. Elastic Range Sales Hotline: 01538 392616 The Elastic range of lanyards is the next step in tool arrest, allowing the user greater flexibility and usability. RTLE 1 ELASTIC TOOL LANYARD WITH CHOKE LOOP MAX. CAPACITY 5kg These are all made from our high quality 20mm elasticated webbing. The benefit of using elasticated webbing is less slack, reducing any trip or snag hazards and keeping all your equipment closer to your body while also offering basic shock absorption. As well as the choke loop method of connecting a tool, the Standard range has the option of a clip buckle lanyard (RTLS2). This lanyard allows the user to keep several small tools looped, so when a particular tool is needed it can be swiftly connected onto the lanyard using the clip buckle. Length: 1.22 metres Web material: 20mm Water Repellent Polyester Webbing strength: > 1000 kg Tool attachment: 190mm Choke Loop Our Elastic range, in addition to the standard choke loops, offers a bungee loop version (RTLE2) for added versatility.

Shock Absorber Range Our Shock Absorber range of lanyards is the pinnacle of our range of tool lanyards, offering unrivalled fall protection built in. Sales Hotline: 01538 392616 RTLA 1 RTLK 1 SHOCK PACK TOOL LANYARD WITH CHOKE LOOP KINETIC TOOL LANYARD WITH CHOKE LOOP MAX. CAPACITY 5kg If a user drops a heavy tool while working at height, there is a very real danger that they could be pulled off a ladder or platform by the falling tool. Our Shock Absorber range is specifically designed to significantly reduce that risk. The range is split into two: the unique Shock Pack version and the top-of-therange Kinetic version, both offering outstanding safety characteristics. THE DEPLOYED SAFE DISTANCE BENEFITS OF USING A SHOCK ABSORBER TOOL LANYARD. MAX. CAPACITY 10kg Our Kinetic tool lanyards are our top-of-therange product offering unrivalled protection for the user. Kinetic is our unique webbing specially designed and developed to reduce the potentially devastating shock involved in the event of a fall. It was originally developed for our fall arrest lanyards but the principle is exactly the same and equally important in the event of a falling tool. Length: 1.25 metres Web material: 20mm Water Repellent Polyester Webbing strength: > 1000 kg Tool attachment: 210mm Choke Loop A Kinetic tool lanyard significantly reduces the risk of a dropped tool dragging the user off a platform and, because the deployed distance is less than the shock pack tool lanyard, it can reduce the risk below too.

Using our extensive in-house testing lab, we are able to show the radical reduction in the forces exerted on the user and the virtual eradication of the dangerous ‘bouncing’ effect when using one of our Shock Absorber Tool Lanyards. The table opposite shows the force traces from our tests when a 10kg tool is dropped from a height of just 2.5 metres. You can see that with a standard tool lanyard a 10kg tool will be nearly 30 times its original weight! NOTE: Karabiners sold separately. See Connectors page. MAX.
